Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Sting Like A Bee; Under The Sun; Mosque II; Guiding Light (4 works) by Muhammad Ali was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in December 2021. The price achieved of USD 4,080.00 (€ 3,604.88) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Muhammad Ali achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Sting Like A Bee, 1978 in October 2021 with an auction result of USD 425,312.50 (€ 368,172.18).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Sting Like A Bee; Under The Sun; Mosque II; Guiding Light (4 works) von Muhammad Ali kam im Dezember 2021 bei Bonhams in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 4.080,00 (€ 3.604,88) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Muhammad Ali erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Sting Like A Bee, 1978 im Oktober 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 425.312,50 (€ 368.172,18).
